This is a stunning Original Victorian Marine Telescope with Leather case from W. Ottoway.
In good used condition. The leather is all bound tightly and the telescope operates really well. The eye and lens covers are in perfect condition as is the original leather strap. As you can see from the pictures, the leather has a really warm glow, as does the brass.
The eyepiece is stamped with the words ‘Victorian Marine Telescope 1915’. Both lenses are clear and very clean.
Along the length of the telescope are the words
Victorian Marine Telescope.
W. Ottway & Co Ltd.
Ealing, London.
1941
This is a fantastic object and is owned by my father who was in the Merchant Navy. He has been an avid collector of maritime objects for all of his life.
We have found poorer examples retailing on eBay for £250.00, so the bidding will start at £150.00.
Dimensions are as follows;
55mm diameter large lens
27 mm eyepiece
150mm when closed
400mm when opened.
Good luck, thanks for looking and any questions, just ask.
